Ed, Edd n Eddy's Big Picture Show

The Eds' latest scam has backfired heavily and left the Cul-de-Sac in a state of devastation. The other children have been severely wounded and decide to confront the Eds violently. After narrowly escaping, the Eds decide to search for Eddy's older brother for protection. However, Eddy does not actually know where his brother lives.

The other children split up to find the Eds. Jonny and Plank don their respective superhero alter-egos "Captain Melonhead" and "Splinter the Wonderwood" as they travel in a city bus. Rolf leaves with overflowing luggage riding on the back of his pig Wilfred. Kevin and Nazz travel via Kevin's prized bicycle. Jimmy and Sarah are the only kids to not have been involved or affected by the scam, but they seek to have a picnic and watch the Eds get beaten up. They accidentally stumble upon the Kanker sisters—Lee, Marie, and May—who discover what the other kids plan on doing to the Eds. The Kankers go off to protect their "boyfriends" from the other children's wrath while enslaving Jimmy and Sarah.

Meanwhile, the Eds are left to wander aimlessly under Eddy's direction. In a cow field, Edd profiles Eddy's brother and reasons that given his con artistry, he would likely be found at a place involving pranks. Ed uses one of his decade-old comic books to suggest that the group travel to the Lemon Brook Gag Factory through a sunflower field. Upon arriving, they find the factory has been abandoned. Ed and Eddy play with the leftover gags while Edd searches for clues in the office.

After leaving the factory, Eddy claims that his brother was once a "whaler", so Edd deduces that he must live by sea. Edd then builds a boat and the Eds ride on it over the river to find Eddy's brother. The river ends in a swamp, where the boat is destroyed. Ed and Eddy prank Edd into believing that they sank to their demises in quicksand. The two laugh at him for falling for their prank. Infuriated, Edd decides to return home and face the kids' wrath. Ed bawls over their damaged friendship while Eddy is initially enraged by this, but then cries and apologizes for the prank. Edd forgives him and the Eds continue their journey.

Meanwhile, Jimmy and Sarah manage to escape from the Kankers by hiding in the sunflower field. They continue their journey with Wilfred, who has ended up separated from Rolf. Later in the evening, the Kankers confront and abduct Nazz, Kevin, and Rolf. The next morning, the Eds come across a coastal theme park called "Mondo A-Go Go", which Edd links to a postcard Eddy has from his brother. The Eds conclude that they have successfully located his brother, living in a trailer resembling a whale.

Soon, everyone else, except for Jonny and Plank, arrive as well. Eddy then knocks on the trailer door and his brother reveals himself. Although his brother originally seems to be everything that the kids imagined, he reveals himself to be physically abusive towards Eddy without reason, leaving everyone appalled. When Edd tries to interfere, Eddy's brother uses Eddy to slam Edd into the ground, prompting everyone to defend Eddy. Ed sends the trailer door flying into Eddy's brother and knocks him out.

Expressing remorse over his past actions, Eddy tearfully reveals that he lied about his brother in an unsuccessful attempt to gain admiration and social acceptance. Touched by Eddy's open confession and apology, the kids forgive the Eds and accept them as their friends. Jonny and Plank subsequently arrive and, without giving anyone a chance to explain what happened, quickly attack the Eds. In response, the other kids attack Jonny and Plank. Kevin subsequently invites everyone over for jawbreakers and the children, except for Jonny and Plank, return home together while the Kankers drag Eddy's brother into his trailer.

In the post-credits scene, Jonny and Plank, enraged after everyone turned against them, vow revenge and replace their superhero personas with the villainous alter-egos "The Gourd" and "Timber the Dark Shard". However, Plank tells Jonny that there is no time left in the movie, with Jonny being oblivious to his presence within the film.

Years before the announcement, there were rumors about a possible Ed, Edd n Eddy feature film.[1] At the 2006 San Diego Comic-Con, series creator Danny Antonucci stated that a "90 minute special" was set to air in the next year.[2] In The Complete Second Season DVD's "Behind the Eds" interview, Antonucci hinted that the film would reveal what is under Double D's hat, though this never occurred, outside of a possible hint of him being bald in a few episodes, such as "Run Ed, Run".[3]

In June 2007, a.k.a. Cartoon confirmed they were working on a 90-minute television film, which was planned to broadcast in 2008, along with a DVD release. As a result, production of the previously ordered sixth season of the series was replaced by the film, not because of a lack of interest in new episodes, but rather because the entire a.k.a. staff was occupied with the making of the film. Cartoon Network agreed to Antonucci's decision to make a film rather than the sixth season. Two sixth-season episodes were already in production, though, so Cartoon Network aired them as a special event on June 29, 2008.[4] IGN confirmed that the series was on hiatus due to the film in November 2007.[5]

On July 27, 2007, at the 2007 Comic-Con, a.k.a. announced that the film, entitled Ed, Edd n Eddy's Big Picture Show, would feature the search for Eddy's brother, a character who had been alluded to several times throughout the series but would be seen for the first time in the film, and that it would be the series finale.[6] He was voiced by Terry Klassen,[7] who had also served as the voice director for the series.[8]

The film was completed in 2008, but did not premiere until November 2009.[9] It was directed by Antonucci, who co-wrote the film along with Jono Howard, Mike Kubat, Rachel Connor and Stacy Warnick. The film was storyboarded by Scott Underwood, Steve Garcia, Raven Molisee, Joel Dickie and "Big Jim" Miller.[7] Ed, Edd n Eddy's Big Picture Show finally premiered on November 8, 2009, on Cartoon Network.[10] It was the only Ed, Edd n Eddy production to be produced in 16:9 widescreen. The series' composer Patric Caird returned to compose the score, and later released it on his website.[11] The film can be purchased on the iTunes Store.[12]

Matt Kapko of Animation World Network described the premiere of Ed, Edd n Eddy's Big Picture Show as a "huge ratings success for Cartoon Network," noting that the premiere "earned double and triple-digit ratings and delivery gains among all kid demo[graphics]."[10]

Charlie-Robinson Poortvliet of MovieAddictz.com gave the film an "8.2/10" rating, considering it superior to all Ed, Edd n Eddy episodes he has seen; calling it a "double episode grand finale", Poortvliet acclaimed the film's plot, voice acting performances, and direction, and said that he "couldn't stop laughing", calling it a "must see" for fans, saying they would "love this movie for a fact", and also noted that the film was a "huge positive surprise, as normally TV movies are worse than the series."[13]
